Hi again La Luna....fancy meeting you here! 
I see you got invited also to do the proxy test.  I'm so grateful because I have not been able to get to this site via the regular address or the IP given to members since the attack started at 10PM HST March 18 when I suddenly could not post my forum remark. I use Ping Plotter's TCP engine so dslr should be responding to those pings but Ping Plotter is showing 73% packet loss at dslr hop and both dslr and nac.net show "error" on the last two hops since last night. The alternative IP, around 2AM HST, let me login and then immediately flipped me back to the front page announcement. About an hour ago, that IP was seen by the Proxomitron to be unaccessible. So, I am so happy to be able to get here on this proxy.
This is a really rotten thing to do to dslr. I reported the Road Runner IP addresses on the list to RR abuse but that was just a drop in the bucket. Thanks Justin and nil for all the hard work and keeping the site up as much as possible.
EDIT: right after posting this I saw La Luna's post saying she could now get here normally. I checked Ping Plotter and it was showing normal pings to dslr for the first time since last night. So, I tried to get here normally and was able to do so!

Do you need anything for me to turn over to security on our end (at&t that is)?
Let me know, or if you want post the IP's in the direct forum.
Thanks

| thanks, but don't worry about it. I actually didn't expect individual IPs to be shut off (although I should have thought about it harder, the list wasn't 100% clean) my intent was for someone to id and possible kick over the command/control machine which normally requires snooping the traffic to a zombie to see where it is getting instructions from.
taking out individual hosts is kind of a losing proposition - labor intensive, and the hosts are easily replaced by others. The vast majority of these IPs were overseas anyway.
they've fallen silent now anyway so as far as the site goes it is over with.. |

said by doppler :I always thought you can turn the tables on these guys. A couple of times I ran a small limited FTP for a few forum friends. To pass about a couple of large files. I only limited to 2 open connections and not anon. Of course some jerks, would not follow the 2 rules. Since this was a while back. And they all were running windoze boxes. Simple ping-of-death was possible, to knock off the offender. I know, you will not get the botmaster. But maybe a few slaves would wonder why they froze and fix there damn systems. Maybe I am being to simplistic and assuming some intelligence of the end-parties. The fact that their IP is pwned is proof of their limited or non-existent intelligence.
And, your "forum friends" with the learning disability are further proof of limited intelligence.
I too tried running an ftp server, but nobody followed "the rules". I guess my friends are even dumber than yours.
I like the idea of ddos-ing the botnets, though. I wish there was an automatic way to do that...
